And just as Alice found herself down the rabbit hole, I find myself transported to a similar magical reality. Surrounded by lush greenery, blooming buds and a quaint little arbour, I am reminded of one of my favourite childhood movies, The Secret Garden. Almost as if I had anticipated this little sanctuary, I’m styling a tea dress in a vibrant floral canvas, and a matching pair of pumps.

Unlike my blonde Disney counterpart, I am keeping a very keen eye on my Skagen timepiece to ensure I keep things punctual, and arrive home just in time for supper. The only other sparkle to feature in this look, is the understatedly chic pair of earrings that adorn my earlobes, as I intend to emphasis the same bold print I am wearing. Should any mad hatters approach me, I am well equipped for a spot of tea and senseless celebration!

MBFF Brisbane Myer SS16 Show

MBFF Brisbane Aje Myer Jen Hawkins Kris Smith

The 10th anniversary of the Mercedes-Benz Fashion Festival Brisbane kicked off with a bang, as Jennifer Hawkins opened the Myer Spring Summer 16 Show, powering down the runway in a stunning Alex Perry lace pencil dress. The face of Myer was accompanied on the runway by Myer ambassador Kris Smith, who looked chiselled and dapper in his tailored M.J Bale suit.

Like any fabulous runway event, the front row was filled with fashion A-listers including Alex Perry, Adrian Norris and Edwina Robinson of Aje, Emma and Amy Sheppard and this season’s Bachelor evictee Jasmine Brown.

This show was my favourite from the week, as it showcased Myer’s new Spring Summer 16 collection from the top Australian designers including Alex Perry, Tony Maticevski, Aje, Acler, Cozi, Cue & more. If there’s one thing I’m certain of, it’s that I’ll be hitting up Myer to snap up my favourite pieces before they sell out.

Presenting my favourite runway moments, captured by my fashion partner in crime, Erin Smith Photography.
